Still a strong Character

CHARACTER Group, which holds the UK licence for cartoon character Scooby-Doo, offset a poor four months at its toys and games unit with a positive show at its digital arm, which sells Polaroid cameras.

New US distribution and the launch of canine robot Robosapien - said to be a potential Toy of the Year - will keep it on track to achieve £100m group turnover targets, said chairman Richard King.
